Metaverse will allow for a 'virtual presence' in a virtual world'
Tech Expert Trevor Long says the best way to describe the Metaverse is a "virtual presence" in a "virtual world". 'If you ask people who are in some way invested in it right now, they would argue it's a virtual reality world, a place to escape, a different way to engage, a different way to interact, a different way to have conversations and meetings," Mr Long told Sky News Australia. 'But in fact, Facebook, or now known as Meta, when I interviewed their head of Meta, he didn't really have an answer to that question either because they don't believe that it will be a thing for 10 or 15 years.' He said Meta is simply "positioning themselves" for a virtual world which would involve Mark Zuckerberg in a virtual sense as a 'computer avatar'. 'That's as much of a description as we can give, it's a virtual world, it's a virtual presence.'
